Calls for better recognition of Queensland vet technologists and nurses

Queensland's Department of Primary Industries is reviewing the 90-year-old Veterinary Surgeons Act to better recognize veterinary technologists and nurses. Experts say the highly skilled professionals are underutilized due to lack of formal regulation, limiting their ability to perform duties they're qualified for. Western Australia is the only Australian state that mandates registering veterinary nurses and technologists.
